Description
Cross Reference to Related Applications
This application claims priority from korean patent application No. 10-2016-0143863, filed on 31/10/2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to a display device capable of preventing or reducing luminance unevenness due to voltage drop by using an auxiliary electrode.
Background
Many electronic devices such as monitors, TVs, notebook computers, and digital cameras include a display device for implementing or displaying images. For example, the display device may include a liquid crystal display device or an organic light emitting display device.
The display device may include a light emitting structure for realizing a specific color. For example, the light emitting structure may include a lower electrode, a light emitting layer, and an upper electrode, which are sequentially stacked.
The display device may use the auxiliary electrode to prevent voltage drop and brightness unevenness due to the resistance of the upper electrode. The auxiliary electrode may be spaced apart from the light emitting structure. For example, the auxiliary electrode may be disposed outside a data line that supplies a data signal to the light emitting structure. The auxiliary electrode may be electrically connected to the upper electrode of the light emitting structure.
In the display device, various structures may be used to connect the upper electrode and the auxiliary electrode. For example, in a display device, an undercut region may be formed on the auxiliary electrode using a bank insulating layer covering an edge of the lower electrode so that a portion of the auxiliary electrode may be exposed through the light emitting layer. Therefore, in the display device, the upper electrode formed through the process having better step coverage than the light emitting layer may be electrically connected to a portion of the auxiliary electrode where the light emitting layer is not deposited.
However, since the vertical distance of the undercut region (under-cut region) formed by the bank insulating layer is not large, the adhesive layer used in the process of attaching the upper substrate to the lower substrate formed with the upper electrode may not sufficiently flow to the undercut region, so that a void may be formed in the undercut region. In the display device, the gap formed between the auxiliary electrode and the bank insulating layer may be regarded as a spot on the screen. Therefore, in the display device, the void may reduce the quality of the image. In addition, in the display device, since external moisture may permeate through the gap, luminance unevenness is generated due to a reduction in characteristics of some thin film transistors.

Here, the embodiments of the present disclosure are provided in order to allow the technical spirit of the present disclosure to be satisfactorily transferred to those skilled in the art, and thus the present disclosure may be embodied in other forms without being limited to the following embodiments.
In addition, the same or similar elements may be denoted by the same reference numerals throughout the specification, and in the drawings, the length and thickness of layers and regions may be exaggerated for convenience. It will be understood that when a first element is referred to as being "on" a second element, a third element may be interposed between the first and second elements, although the first element may be disposed on the second element so as to be in contact with the second element.
Herein, terms such as "first" and "second" may be used to distinguish any one element from another element. However, the first element and the second element may be arbitrarily named according to the convenience of those skilled in the art without departing from the technical spirit of the present disclosure.
Certain terminology is used in the description of the disclosure for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. For example, an element described in the singular is intended to comprise a plurality of elements, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Furthermore, in the description of the present disclosure, it will be further understood that the terms "comprises" and "comprising" specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.
Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which example embodiments belong. It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.
Fig. 1 is a plan view schematically illustrating a display device according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of the region P shown in fig. 1. Fig. 3A is a sectional view taken along line I-I' of fig. 1. Fig. 3B is a sectional view taken along line II-II' of fig. 2. Fig. 3C is a sectional view taken along line III-III' of fig. 2.
Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 3A to 3C, a display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a lower substrate 110, thin film transistors Tr1 and Tr2, a lower passivation layer 130, an upper cladding layer 140, an auxiliary electrode 200, a light emitting structure 300, a bank insulating layer 350, an upper substrate 500, and an adhesive layer 600.
The lower substrate 110 may support the thin film transistors Tr1 and Tr2, the auxiliary electrode 200, and the light emitting structure 300. The lower substrate 110 may include an insulating material. For example, the lower substrate 110 may include glass or plastic.
A plurality of gate lines GL, a plurality of data lines DL, and a plurality of power lines VDD may be disposed on the lower substrate 110. The data line DL may intersect the gate line GL. The power line VDD may be parallel to the gate line GL or the data line DL. For example, the power line VDD may intersect the gate line GL. As used herein, the term "intersect" does not require a physical connection or contact between the intersecting elements. Rather, the elements may intersect one another in an overlapping manner with one or more elements disposed therebetween.
The gate line GL, the data line DL, and the power line VDD may define a pixel region. For example, each pixel region may be at least partially surrounded by the gate line GL, the data line DL, and the power supply line VDD. A circuit for controlling the light emitting structure 300 may be disposed in each pixel region. For example, a selection thin film transistor Tr1, a driving thin film transistor Tr2, and a storage capacitor Cst may be disposed in each pixel region.
The selection thin film transistor Tr1 may turn on/off the driving thin film transistor Tr2 according to a gate signal applied through the gate line GL. The driving thin film transistor Tr2 may supply a driving current to the corresponding light emitting structure 300 according to a signal of the selection thin film transistor Tr 1. For example, the selection thin film transistor Tr1 may have the same structure as the driving thin film transistor Tr 2. The storage capacitor Cst may maintain a signal applied to the selection thin film transistor Tr1 of the driving thin film transistor Tr2 for a predetermined time.
The driving thin film transistor Tr2 may include a semiconductor pattern 210, a gate insulating layer 220, a gate electrode 230, an interlayer insulating layer 240, a source electrode 250, and a drain electrode 260.
The semiconductor pattern 210 may be disposed close to the lower substrate 110. The semiconductor pattern 210 may include a semiconductor material. For example, the semiconductor pattern 210 may include amorphous silicon or polysilicon. For example, the semiconductor pattern 210 may include an oxide semiconductor material such as Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (IGZO). The semiconductor pattern 210 may include a source region, a drain region, and a channel region. The channel region may be disposed between the source region and the drain region.
The display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a buffer layer 120 between the lower substrate 110 and the semiconductor pattern 210. The buffer layer 120 may extend beyond the thin film transistors Tr1 and Tr 2. For example, the buffer layer 120 may cover the entire surface of the lower substrate 110. The buffer layer 120 may include an insulating material. For example, the buffer layer 120 may include silicon oxide.
The gate insulating layer 220 may be disposed on the semiconductor pattern 210. The gate insulating layer 220 may overlap a channel region of the semiconductor pattern 210. The gate insulating layer 220 may include an insulating material. For example, the gate insulating layer 220 may include silicon oxide and/or silicon nitride. The gate insulating layer 220 may include a high-K material. For example, the gate insulating layer 220 may include hafnium oxide (HfO) or titanium oxide (TiO). The gate insulating layer 220 may have a multi-layered structure.
The gate electrode 230 may be disposed on the gate insulating layer 220. The gate electrode 230 may overlap with a channel region of the semiconductor pattern 210. For example, the gate insulating layer 220 may include a side surface continuous with a side surface of the gate electrode 230. The gate electrode 230 may include a conductive material. For example, the gate electrode 230 may include a metal such as aluminum (Al), chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), and tungsten (W).
A gate insulating layer 240 may be disposed on the semiconductor pattern 210 and the gate electrode 230. The gate insulating layer 240 may extend beyond the semiconductor pattern 210. The gate insulating layer 220 and the gate electrode 230 may be completely surrounded by the interlayer insulating layer 240. For example, the interlayer insulating layer 240 may be in direct contact with the buffer layer 120 at the outer edge of the semiconductor pattern 210. The interlayer insulating layer 240 may include an insulating material. For example, the interlayer insulating layer 240 may include silicon oxide and/or silicon nitride. The interlayer insulating layer 240 may have a multi-layer structure.
The source electrode 250 and the drain electrode 260 may be disposed on the interlayer insulating layer 240. The drain electrode 260 may be spaced apart from the source electrode 250.

The upper electrode 330 may include a conductive material. The upper electrode 330 may include a different material than the lower electrode 310. For example, the upper electrode 330 may include only a transparent material. Accordingly, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, light generated by the light emitting layer 320 may be emitted to the outside through the upper electrode 330.
The bank insulating layer 350 may insulate each lower electrode 310 from an adjacent pixel region. For example, the bank insulating layer 350 may cover one or more edges of the lower electrode 310. A pixel penetration hole 351h may be formed through the bank insulating layer 350, and the pixel penetration hole 351h may expose a portion of the lower electrode 310. The light emitting layer 320 and the upper electrode 330 may be stacked on the surface of the lower electrode 310 exposed by the pixel penetration hole 351h of the bank insulating layer 350.
A first bank penetration hole 352h and a second bank penetration hole 353h may also be formed through the bank insulating layer 350. As shown in fig. 2 and 3B, the first and second bank penetration holes 352h and 353h may overlap the auxiliary electrode 200.

For example, the first bank penetration hole 352h may include a side surface overlapping the upper clad layer 140 and a side surface disposed on the lower penetration hole 130 h. The first bank penetration hole 352h may include a side surface intersecting with a side surface of the lower penetration hole 130 h. For example, as shown in the plan view of fig. 2, the first bank penetration hole 352h may partially overlap the lower penetration hole 130h such that a side surface of the first bank penetration hole 352h includes a portion overlapping the lower penetration hole 130h and other portions not overlapping the lower penetration hole 130 h.
An end portion of the bank insulating layer 350 disposed near a side surface of the first bank penetration hole 352h disposed to overlap the lower penetration hole 130h may overlap the auxiliary electrode 200 and may not overlap the lower passivation layer 130.

The planar size of the first bank penetration hole 352h may be the same as the planar size of the lower penetration hole 130h, however, as shown in fig. 2, the first bank penetration hole 352h may be positioned in an offset manner with respect to the lower penetration hole 130h such that the first bank penetration hole 352h only partially overlaps the lower penetration hole 130 h. For example, the center of the first bank penetration hole 352h is different from the center of the lower penetration hole 130 h. The first bank penetration hole 352h may be a polygon of the same type as the planar shape of the lower penetration hole 130 h. For example, the first penetration hole 352h and the lower penetration hole 130h may each have a rectangular shape.

The second bank penetration hole 353h may have the same type of polygon as the planar shape of the first bank penetration hole 353 h. For example, the second bank penetration hole 353h may have a rectangular shape.

The lower surface of the bank insulating layer 350 in the undercut region UC may not be covered with the light emitting layer 320. In the undercut region UC, the light emitting layer 320 may not be formed on the surface of the auxiliary electrode 200 overlapping the bank insulating layer 350.

The adhesive layer 600 may directly contact the upper electrode 330 on the auxiliary electrode 200 through the lower penetration hole 130h and the first bank penetration hole 352 h. The adhesive layer 600 may extend into the undercut region UC formed by the bank insulating layer 350. The adhesive layer 600 may extend into the undercut region UC through the second bank penetration hole 353 h.
In the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second bank penetration hole 353h may be disposed in the undercut region UC formed by the first bank penetration hole 352 h. Accordingly, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the horizontal distance of the undercut region UC may be partially reduced due to the second bank penetration hole 353 h. Accordingly, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the adhesive layer 600 for attaching the upper substrate 500 to the lower substrate 110 may relatively easily fill the undercut region UC. Further, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the adhesive layer 600 may flow to the undercut region UC through the first and second bank penetration holes 352h and 353h, an inflow path of the adhesive layer 600 into the undercut region UC may be diversified, so that the adhesive layer 600 may quickly fill the undercut region UC. Accordingly, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the generation of voids caused by the adhesive layer 600 may be prevented or reduced.
The display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may further include an upper passivation layer 400 between the light emitting structure 300 and the adhesive layer 600. The upper passivation layer 400 may prevent or otherwise reduce the influence of external impact and moisture on the thin film transistors Tr1 and Tr2 and the light emitting structure 300. The upper passivation layer 400 may include an insulating material. For example, the upper passivation layer 400 may include silicon oxide and/or silicon nitride. The upper passivation insulating layer 400 may have a multi-layered structure.
A display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be described as including a plurality of second bank penetration holes 353h disposed along or adjacent to one or more side surfaces of the first bank penetration hole 352 h. However, as shown in fig. 4, a display device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure may include a single second bank penetration 353h extending along or adjacent to one or more side surfaces of the first bank penetration 352 h. As shown, the planar shape of the second bank penetration hole 353h may be different from the planar shape of the first bank penetration hole 352 h. The planar shape of the second bank penetration hole 353h may be a polygon of the same type as the planar shape of the first bank penetration hole 352 h.
Accordingly, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the adhesive layer 600 may rapidly and easily flow into the undercut region UC through the second bank penetration hole 353h, which partially penetrates the undercut region UC formed by the first bank penetration hole 352h of the bank insulating layer 350 in order to connect the auxiliary electrode 200 to the upper electrode 330, due to the adhesive layer 600, the generation of voids at the undercut region UC may be reduced or prevented, and thus, the quality degradation and the luminance unevenness may be reduced or prevented.
The display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure has been described such that the horizontal distance of the undercut region UC is reduced by the second bank penetration hole 353h of the bank insulating layer 350 overlapping the lower penetration hole 130 h. However, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, in a display device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the circumference of the first bank penetration hole 352h of the bank insulating layer 350 arranged to overlap the lower penetration hole 130h may have one or more protrusions 353 p. The protrusions 353p extend the periphery of the first bank penetration hole 352h outward beyond the adjacent peripheral portion, so that the periphery of the first bank penetration hole 352h has a stepped shape with an alternating arrangement of protrusions 353p and non-protrusions. The side surface of the lower penetration hole 130h adjacent to the periphery of the first bank penetration hole 352h having the protrusion 353p may have a linear shape. Accordingly, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the undercut region UC formed by the first bank penetration hole 352h of the bank insulating layer 350 may include regions having a relatively short horizontal length and regions having a relatively long horizontal length, which are repeatedly or alternately arranged. That is, in the display device according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, since the periphery of the first bank penetration hole 352h may have a step shape, the adhesive layer 600 may flow into a region of the undercut region UC having a relatively long horizontal length through a region of the undercut region UC having a relatively short horizontal length. Thereby, in the display device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, quality degradation and luminance unevenness due to the unfilled area of the adhesive layer 600 may be prevented.
Thus, the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may include the undercut region in which the region having the relatively short horizontal length is repeatedly arranged, so that the adhesive layer for attaching the upper substrate to the lower substrate may easily flow into the undercut region. Accordingly, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the generation of voids caused by the adhesive layer in the undercut region may be prevented or reduced. Thus, in the display device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the quality degradation and the luminance unevenness due to the unfilled region of the adhesive layer can be effectively prevented or reduced.
The above embodiments may be combined to provide further embodiments.
